With the Queensway Security Service National Super50 Tournament underway, one of the young talents looking to make an impression is Jonathan van Lange.
The promising all-rounder has been preparing diligently for this moment, eager to translate months of hard work into strong performances on the field. “It’s definitely an opportunity that I look forward to utilising,” van Lange said ahead of his first appearance.

“Being around this setup and seeing the guys coming back from the West Indies Under-19, it’s going to bring some good performances ahead. Hopefully, I can get selected for Guyana. But right now, I’m just focusing on one step at a time, one game at a time.”
That measured, focused mindset has guided van Lange’s preparation, even in the face of limited match practice leading up to the competition. “There wasn’t really a lot of match practice, but we’re in the nets every day,” he explained. “If we’re not in the nets, we always have a short knock. So, I was working on something daily.”
Now that the tournament has begun, the young cricketer is eager to apply those countless hours of training in real competition. His disciplined approach and calm composure are already drawing attention from coaches and teammates alike.
Outside of cricket, van Lange keeps sharp through tennis, a sport he says complements his cricketing instincts. “I don’t really switch between the two,” he said. “I just think they go hand in glove because they’re both hand-eye sports. So, I play cricket and play tennis, but cricket is definitely the main sport.”
With the Super50 Tournament offering a valuable platform for emerging players to prove themselves, van Lange is determined to make every opportunity count. His focus on consistency, effort, and growth mirrors the attitude of a player ready to rise through the ranks.
